Apr 21, 2009 22 0z bottle. Large foamy head over very dark brown body. Aroma of bread, yeast, raisins. Flavor was bitter, almost like sourdough bread. Or as Bman1113vr put it when we sampled it together "a rotten fruit roll-up". Also a sour grape flavor.

Apr 13, 2009 Bottle. Pours dark brown with a one finger light tan head. Aroma was tart and sour with light fruit, malts, yeast, and notes of vinegar. Flavor was slightly sour with toasted malts, yeasty funk, and a hint of caramel and had a metallic aftertaste. Dont bother

Apr 3, 2009 22 ounce bottle. Pours a dark brown color with a medium head. Poor head retention and lacing. Aroma is faint with notes of brown sugar, toffee and a sourness that should not be there. Taste is that same sourness, yet much more so. Other than that some earthy toffeish notes. Faint hops. Medium bodied. Cooked bottle and a miss by the brewery.

Feb 10, 2009 Bottle. Aroma is strong vinegar and sour fruit. Deep brown body, very small head. Flavor sways heavily to the sour side, not sure if pleasantly or not, but seems to become more palatable with additional sips. Certainly a nonconformist to expectations of a Dubbel.
